T2K goals:
          •  Provide equity and opportunity by increasing the percentage of students enrolled in kindergarten
          •  Build awareness and excitement around kindergarten registration and ensure schools are prepared to welcome
             students on the first day
          •  Provide opportunities/resources (Kindergarten Readiness Kit) to support the successful transition to kindergarten

        The District promoted the T2K Plan community-wide via television and radio (in four languages), social media platforms,
        billboards,  posters/flyers,  and  direct  mail  postcards.  Superintendent  Burke  and  the  School  Board  addressed  families
        through community outreach events. The District created the T2K website and included a QR code to direct parents to
        a new streamlined online registration page. Incoming kindergarten students received a Kindergarten Readiness Kit and
        parents received bi-weekly videos demonstrating how to use the kit.
